This is all a volunteer basis. We will pay for the paint/supplies, (hard costs). What can be in return is recognition in the Newspaper and among the people in the Region.

Vote For Art will be similar to Threadless but with a collegiate focus. We have partnered with six major universities for our main launch in November, for which we will be hosting graphic design contests. The winners’ artwork will be printed on t-shirts and sold at the University bookstore.

We are currently hosting the “Design Our Logo” contest which will be the very first of its kind.  Members of the Vote For Art community will be able to design and vote for the actual logo to be displayed on our site and on all of the tees sold online and in book stores around the country.  Not only will Vote For Art members create all the products sold in our stores, but they’ll also create the brand of the entire community!

I believe Vote For Art can be a very useful tool for your art students. Contests on our website are completely free to enter. If an artist design is chosen (based on votes from public), the artist will earn a cash reward and a percentage of t-shirt sales. They will also be able to earn national exposure for their work. It is a win-win for artists.
